Why does the compiler tell me vector<string> is not declared?

I have some code here which reads from a file, and stores them in a vector.

I wish to pass this vector to another class. However, when i try to do that, it gives me a strange error, which i do not fully understand. It seems to be saying that the vector is not declared.

Here is the first few lines of a very long error:

 g++ C_Main.cpp C_HomePage.cpp C_SelectionPage.cpp -o Project
     C_HomePage.cpp:286:40: error: no ‘std::vector<std::basic_string<char> > HomePage::getDutiesList()’ member function declared in class ‘HomePage’
    C_HomePage.cpp:290:26: error: ‘std::vector<std::basic_string<char> > HomePage::getResourcesList’ is not a static member of ‘class HomePage’
    C_HomePage.cpp:290:26: warning: extended initializer lists only available with -std=c++0x or -std=gnu++0x
    C_HomePage.cpp:291:2: error: expected primary-expression before ‘return’
    C_HomePage.cpp:291:2: error: expected ‘}’ before ‘return’
    C_HomePage.cpp:291:2: error: in C++98 ‘HomePage::getResourcesList’ must be initialized by constructor, not by ‘{...}’
    C_HomePage.cpp:291:2: error: no matching function for call to ‘std::vector<std::basic_string<char> >::vector(<brace-enclosed initializer list>)’

Here is line 282 - line 292 of C_HomePage.cpp

int HomePage::getInitPoints(){ 
    return initPoints; 
}

vector<string> HomePage::getDutiesList(){
    return dutiesList;
}

vector<string> HomePage::getResourcesList{
    return resourcesList;
}

Here is the corresponding declarations for those methods in H_HomePage.h

class HomePage {
        //These values will be the property of the flat
        //They are set before the login screen is displayed
        string manager;
        int initPoints;
        vector<string> dutiesList;
        vector<string> resourcesList;
        vector<FlatMember> flatMemberList;
        string loginName;


        public:

            HomePage(string);

            void login(string);
            string receivePassword();

            void importFlatMembers(string);
            void exportFlatMembers(string);         

            string getLoginName();
            string getManager();
            int getInitPoints();
            vector<string> getDutiesList;
            vector<string> getResourcesList;

};

I honestly does not know what is wrong, and have spent many hours getting frustrated over it already. Could someone please help?

You're missing parentheses in the declarations of getDutiesList and getResourcesList:

vector<string> getDutiesList();
vector<string> getResourcesList();

EDIT: You're also missing the parentheses in your .cpp file:

vector<string> HomePage::getResourcesList(){
    return resourcesList;
}
